The motivations are unclear

These are people who are customers of a seafood store. What were they there to buy?

I'm reminded of a human interest story when I was in NH. A Red Lobster had an albino lobster and released it at the request of the patrons. They were not lobster rights activists by any means - they just thought that the albino lobster was cool and should be saved. (And then went to enjoy their own lobster dinner.)

Cheers,
Ben

A colonoscopy, while eerily similar, is probably better than politics.
